Dedicated to @foolish4lyfee @victorious28 and @adoreemahone_ for voting on my chapters! It means so much to me! I love you guys! <3

I lied, I don't think I'm going to start from the beginning of last chapter, I'm going to start from close to the end because it's the only way for this to work out right, sorry.

Enjoy!!

I lean my head to the side hoping to land on Austin's shoulder, but my eyes shoot open when my head hits his seat. I notice his seat is empty as well as Taylor's. I look over to see Zach listening to his music and I scoot into Taylor's seat pulling out his earphone. He looks over at me and sends me a glare and I groan.

"Zach, stop being mad at me" I whine "I told you I was sorry"

"I know" He says.

"Zachary! If you don't forgive me I will tell everyone about how when we were in 4th grade and we went on that field trip to the zoo you sh-" He slaps a hand over my mouth.

"That tiger was really scary okay?"

I giggle into his hand and roll my eyes, I pull his hand off my mouth "Yeah but does that entitle you to shit your pants"

"You're the worst you know that right?"

"Yeah, but you love me" I grin.

"Yeah, unfortunately I do" He teases and I laugh.

"Now that I know that you love me and you are my best friend again I'm going back to sleep" I say and scoot back into my seat and closing my eyes. Moments after sitting there I feel something swipe my legs, I open my eyes to see Austin's back.

"Hey, where were you?" I ask.

"The bathroom" He says simply.

"Oh okay, I was worried" I lean my head on Austin's shoulder and grab his hand lacing our fingers together, but he lets go of my hand and leans into the window so that my head falls off his shoulder. My heart clenches and I am oversome with a strong feeling of hurt. I close my eyes for a few moments and reopen them and begin to scroll through my phone looking at nothing in particular.

I just want this plane ride to be over already...

"Noah, come on the plane is about to land" A voice whispers in my ear and gently shakes my shoulder. My eyes shoot open and I stretch out my tired body and let out a yawn.

"Good morning Sunshine" Austin teases.

"Hi" I whisper.

I buckle my seat belt and sit back in my seat as the plane jolts when it hits the runway. A voice comes over the intercom telling everyone that we have landed and I sigh in relief.

I'm finally home.

We all get off the plane and everyone squeals in excitement when they are reunited with their family. I look around and I see no one. No one from my family came to pick me up. Austin must have noticed the sad expression on my face, because he throws his arm over my shoulder and pulls me into his side kissing my temple.

"It's okay Cutie, I'm sure they'll be here. They're probably just running late"

"I hope so" I mumble.

"Hey look, you can come and meet my mom" He says pointing to a beautiful woman looking around.

"Okay" I whisper and he grabs my hand pulling me towards his mom.
